The team, which already has Spaniard Carmen Jorda signed up in a similar role, added that the 25-year-old would undergo a development program while taking part in the GP3 and GT Asia series. “I aim to become the first Chinese driver to compete in a Formula One Grand Prix which will assist to promote the sport in China and also in Hong Kong,” Fong said in a statement.
